A system and method for displaying a wellbore. A well profile is generated in a computing system. The wellbore is associated with the well profile. Information associated with the wellbore is received including at least components. The wellbore is displayed in three dimensions for review by one or more users.

Three dimensional wellbore visualization

Systems and methods for predefining elements of a cemented wellbore using a graphical user interface comprising various elements for cementing the wellbore and a schematic view of the wellbore and tubing string.

Predefining elements of a cemented wellbore

A plurality of data records is stored in a memory. The data records include data about a drill string in a well. Each data record includes a depth zone, wherein the depth zone includes a range of depths in the well, a description of a component in the drill string in the depth zone for this data record, and a failure flag that, when set, represents a failure in the drill string at the depth zone for this data record. A processor with access to the memory generates and transmits for display on a graphical user interface a schematic of a portion of the drill string. The processor emphasizes on the schematic of the portion of the drill string on the graphical user interface a representation of an emphasized depth zone, wherein a failure flag in a data record for the emphasized depth zone is set.

Navigating to failures in drilling system displays

Graphical User Interface (GUI) facilitated centralization methods and system, including a method that includes displaying a graphical representation of a tubular string within a borehole, accepting an interactive graphical selection of a starting location for a range along the borehole, and accepting an interactive graphical selection of an ending location for the range along the borehole. The method further includes determining string stand-off device positions that provide centralization within the range, and providing said positions to field personnel assembling and placing the tubular string in the borehole.
